        (a)  General rule.--A person may not purchase, produce or
     otherwise acquire 1,000 gallons of maple syrup or more annually
     for the purposes of packaging for sale or resale or for the
     purposes of sale or resale in bulk without possessing a current
     valid dealer's license issued by the department or a current
     valid registration as a food establishment issued by the
     department under the act of July 7, 1994 (P.L.421, No.70), known
     as the Food Act.
        (b)  Optional licensure.--A person who purchases, produces or
     otherwise acquires less than 1,000 gallons of maple syrup
     annually for the purposes of packaging for sale or resale or for
     the purposes of sale or resale in bulk may apply for and be
     issued a dealer's license by the department. A person who is
     licensed pursuant to this subsection shall be subject to the
     same requirements applicable to a person licensed pursuant to
     subsection (a).
        (c)  Application for license.--A person seeking to be
     licensed pursuant to either subsection (a) or (b) shall apply on
     or before December 31 for a license for the succeeding year. The
     application shall be on a form prescribed by the department and,
     together with any other information which the department may
     require, shall include:
            (1)  The name and address of the applicant or, if the
        applicant is an association or partnership, the name and
        address of each member of the association or partnership or,
        if the applicant is a corporation, the name and address of
        each officer of the corporation.
            (2)  The name and address of the person, if other than
        the applicant, whose name will appear on the label of any
        maple product which the person intends to sell.
            (3)  The location of all places at which the applicant
        intends to do business.
        (d)  Issuance of license.--Except as provided in subsection
     (e), the department shall issue a dealer's license to a person
     who submits a completed application pursuant to subsection (c)
     and pays the annual license fee of $35. A person who pays the
     annual registration fee pursuant to section 14(c) of the Food
     Act shall not be subject to the license fee imposed by this
     subsection.
        (e)  Right to refuse, suspend or revoke license.--The
     department may refuse to issue a license or may suspend or
     revoke a previously issued license if the department determines
     that the applicant or licensee has done any of the following:
            (1)  Failed to provide any information which the
        department has reasonably requested.
            (2)  Made a false or misleading statement in the
        application for a license or the renewal of a license.
            (3)  Committed an act prohibited under section 6108
        (relating to prohibited acts).
        (f)  Appeals.--Any person refused a license or a license
     renewal or any person whose license is suspended or revoked may
